Code:

PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile("C:\Output124.tif")

        MsgBox("H:" & Me.Height & vbCrLf & "W:" & Me.Width)

The Form Resize event is called whenever the form is resized, so when that event is fired, you know the form size is being changed.

MsgBox(Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height())
